Code to display "next" year dynamically in PHP
Hello,
I'm converting a script from Coldfusion to PHP. One of the lines of code dynamically returns "next" year.
In Coldfusion, the code is #DateFormat(DateAdd('YYYY'
What is the PHP equivalent? So at the time of this writing, it would return "2016".
Thanks in advance.

Radek is correct, but I was trying to teach you how to fish. :) Please read through that article - it will give you a lot more insight into what you can do with date/time in PHP than just next year. If you're converting an application, it's pretty vital information.
upvoting what gonzo said. :)

Thank you both. This was very helpful. I do know how to fish, but sometimes circumstances just necessitate a quick answer. I had actually done some "fishing" yesterday, but was over complicating it a bit apparently by trying to use the mktime() function in conjunction with the date() function. I appreciate the simplicity that you offered and I do in fact appreciate the link and will read it in its entirety as it's ultimately my desire to grow in my knowledge and understanding. Sometimes time is of the essence thought. :-)
